The two texts in this second volume of 'Voltaire editeur' show very
different approaches to the works presented. Behind the playful
title "Sophonisbe, tragedie de Mairet, reparee a neuf" lies a
thorough critique of a classical style that has become, in
Voltaire's view, unplayable. Not a line of the play remains
untouched by the 'editor'. By contrast it is in the annotation of
the "Discours de l'Empereur Julien contre les chretiens" that
Voltaire pursues his campaign against l'Infame, claiming the Roman
emperor for the band of Enlightenment philosophes.
